RE: My 21st b-day present with some questions
Yep...the 240gr Hornady has a good reputation...Most folks think a lighter bullet with a higher velocity will shoot higher, isn't so with pistols and muzzle loaders...they have lower velocities than center fire rifles, so the bullet is in the barrel longer, so recoil has more time to affect it...A heavier bullet recoils more, so recoil kicks the barrel higher, making the heavier bullet hit the target higher...
